Hello,

We are using Submit in .NET to run SPSS syntax which is generating HTML table with CTABLES via OMS export. If the final table is large, although HTML file is already stored, Submit doesn’t allow thread to continue and freeze for couple of minutes. Example of code and data is embedded.

That is baffling. When the command is submitted, its execution should be the same as in interactive mode. Since there is no front end, it could even be faster. The Submit api itself would not take any time. It would be useful to know what the Task Manager shows for the process during the dead time. Is the process doing anything - cpu, i/o,.... Maybe it is waiting for something (I don't know what.) What are the table dimensions?

We tried to look at Task Manager, but unfortunately there was nothing relevant. You can try it yourself with code and sav file embedded in first post. You only change directory in code where you have placed sav file.
